Surfing the internet last week for Valentine ideas for my boys and amid all of the Valentine goodness I found a grey and pink dress from Target and a pin on Pinterest for a DIY tote bag with a heart and paint dots. I ended up merging the idea together and helped my boys make a Valentine Tee for their cute little cousin.
Pretty self explanatory from the picture. But......
Items Needed:
- Colored Tee shirt of your choice
- Craft Paints
- Cardboard Heart
- Pencils or Paint Brush
- Magazine or Cardboard to go in between the shirt
Instructions:
- Place the cardboard or magazine inside the shirt to avoid the paint bleeding through to the back.
- Place the cardboard heart on the shirt where you would like it. I used a bit of masking tape on the back just to keep it in place.
- Choose your paint colors and either the end of a pencil or the tail end of a paint brush and start making dots along the edge of the heart.
- Keep the dots heavier on the edge of the heart and more spaced away from the heart.
- Alternate colors until you have the desired look.
